In OTD, Keane serves up a sumptuous blend of folk, indie and heartland rock that is uplifting and captivating. Thematically the album is a meditation on the resilience of the human spirit and the power of rebirth inspired by his having recently gone through a rough patch in his life. In it, his earthy vocal styling is backed by a band reminiscent of Nathaniel Rateliff's Night Sweats and a horn section that would give the MG's a run for their money. Looking to spin an emerging artist who emanates a rich and joyous sound? Give this disk a run.
